Pros

-Lots of opportunity for hours especially overtime

Cons

-Hours- They will tell you the hours are 8-5 M-F but that is a lie. Most locations are 7:30-6 pm M-F and Saturday 9-12. - Pay is a joke ($10.50/hr) -They will move you to new work locations with out thinking or asking you first -Upper management is a bunch of skeeves that hit on you and blow cigarette smoke in your face thinking its attractive. -High turnover rate -After you quit, you will NEVER SEE YOUR RETRO PAY! My Story: I applied and quickly accepted the job at Hertz as an MT thinking the hours were typical 8-5 and knowing the pay was so so. After training without telling me, they moved me to a new work location that was never discussed and happened to be almost an hour from my home. Where the training location was 5 minutes. Realizing this was not the path for me I quit after a month. During my month of employment, we were all given a pay raise of 1 dollar making the wage $11.50/hr. I have yet to see a dime of that pay raise. I have contacted the company multiple times and they all pass me to the next person saying Ill get my pay eventually. It has been 3 months and I have yet to receive my money. Which totals to almost $300 in retro pay they owe me. I could take them to court, but it would cost me more in court fees that I am owed and they know that. Horrible company that I am sure to never do business with in the future. Good luck to anyone else who falls into their trap, its not worth it!!

Pros

Cohesive, professional and capable location/store staff. Oh yeah...the heater in office works most of the time. :P

Cons

Recent pay cuts, staff overworked and significantly underpaid, impossible to bonus, poor inventory control/allocation, little to no mgmt accountability. Company is clearly hemorrhaging after three years of creative/horrific errors in financial reporting. Hertz responded with , "thanks for the hard work, we're now cutting your salaries." Classic short run business blunder.
